Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Techniques of Therapeutic Communication II: Focusing, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing

12.3K
Focusing involves centering a conversation on a message's critical elements or concepts. Focusing is valuable if the talk is vague or patients begin to repeat themselves. Sometimes, when patients are asked about their symptoms, they may go off-topic and try to tell their entire life story. Respectfully, the nurse should bring the conversation back into focus.
This therapeutic technique can also be used when a patient brings up pertinent information during a health-related conversation. The...

Summary

Facilitated reflection dialogues can enhance nurses' critical thinking about their practice. However, achieving the deepest level of reflection, questioning assumptions, depends on individual willingness to examine preconceptions.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Professional Development
  • Healthcare Practice

Background:

  • Reflection is crucial for acquiring meaning in self and behavior.
  • Individual limitations in awareness and expression during reflection highlight the need for facilitators.
  • Understanding changes in nursing practice through reflection dialogues is essential.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of reflection dialogues on nursing practice.
  • To assess the depth of reflection achieved by nurses.

Main Methods:

  • Nine nurses from three institutions participated.
  • Workplace topics were explored through self-reflection and reflection dialogues.
  • Mezirow's three levels of reflection (content, process, assumptions) were used for assessment.

Main Results:

  • Nurses' depth of reflection varied.
  • Some nurses reached the highest level (reflecting on assumptions) through self-reflection alone.
  • Reflection dialogues did not consistently advance all nurses to the highest level of reflection.

Conclusions:

  • Developing reflective thinking in nursing is linked to exploring experiences and accepting them.
  • The ability to question one's own thoughts and preconceptions is key to advancing reflective practice.
  • Facilitation may be necessary to help nurses progress to higher levels of reflection.
